Re: [xsl] Xalan Encoding Problems

["Raul Rodriguez" <raulnyc at hotmail dot com>]

David:

You were correct.  The problem does seem to lie with the version of Xerces 
that comes with Xalan_j_2_2_D11.  I also downloaded the latest version of 
the Xerces jar file and it worked.  I then used a copy (dated 5/18/2001) 
that came with my Visual Age for Java distribution and it worked fine.  If 
this has not been reported as a bug, I will register as such.

Thanks

Raul
